Death ok Bishop Ei.i.iott.—The whole Christian community were shock ed yesterday, on hearing of the awfully sudden death of the great Episcopal Bishop. His loss will be deplored over the whole country, ns his name was as a household word in every Episcopal fam ily in the land. The Charleston Courier of yesterday says: “At a late hour last night the telegraph brought us the painful intelli gence of the sudden demise of this eminent Prelate at Savannah, Georgia. He had just returned from a brief visit to the interior in the discharge of his Episcopal '.unctions. He left the cars in apparently perfect health, and soon ntler reaching his residence, expired; doubtless from he irt disease. This sad announcement comes upon us in all its suddenness wit h a most depressing effect. South Carolina will weep, not only with her sister Georgia, where the Dio cesan labors of the deceased were so long and so signally exercised, but with the whole South, in the removal of a Prelate, learned, apostolic, abounding in good works, known, revered and loved, throughout the length and breadth ot our land. An erudite and ripe scholar—a fin ished and most impressive pulpit orator —a master of “English undctilcd''—a patriot son, whose affection for his native land welled out from fountains hoiy as a mother's love, and with aim ami end lofty as became a night of the Cross—all these will lie unshrouded in the grave which closes forever from mortal sight, the loved and gifted Elliot. [communicated.] A CaxPvD. In reply to Mr. Parr's statement in regard to >ny Oil, 1 will state that there is not one word of truth in his whole article, and that his statement is such as only a man devoid of the principle® of a gentleman would make. I defy his boasted proof's, and will guarantee my vtil to he as good in all respects as any offered in this City. Edward S. Bi.caki.ky. Dec. 22, 1866. t Bn (Tdcgrapl).
